Our approach to environmental stewardship is based on understanding and minimising the potential impact of our operations on the environment. We aim to use resources efficiently and leave positive rehabilitation and closure outcomes.

Studies are undertaken to ensure that the environmental consequences of a project are fully understood and residual impacts are adequately managed. The individual environmental requirements of each site are assessed and site-specific procedures and management plans are developed in compliance with our HSEC management system and aligned with the ICMM sustainable development principles. 

Iluka’s partnership with IFC also commits Sierra Rutile to meeting IFC’s Environmental and Social Performance Standards, including:
 
  • Performance Standard 3: Resource Efficiency. This guides companies to integrate practices and technologies that promote energy efficiency, use resources (including energy and water) sustainably, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions; and
  • Performance Standard 6: Biodiversity Conservation and Sustainable Management of Living Natural Resources. The requirements of this standard aim to protect and conserve biodiversity, maintain ecosystem services, and promote the sustainable management of living natural resources.
